[Twilight] Believer

Max was brought back to Volturi by Caius. Along the way, he hugged her and jumped on the roof of the city. His speed was so fast that there was no time for her to buffer, and he reached their roof in the blink of an eye.He tucked her under his armpit and went straight to the library from the skylight. Her feet fell on the carpet of the library for a moment before she sat down, and the sound of the elbow splint hitting the ground was completely swallowed by the carpet.

She just gritted her teeth and pretended to be fine, Caius went straight to the pile of books, Max lay there and exhaled slowly to relieve the pain, the contest of strength between human beings and non-human beings still requires her to say, Please handle it with care next time?She would rather bite the bullet and persevere than ask for help from this vampire who was against her.

At this time, through the eyelashes wet with sweat, Max saw Gianna's delicate Italian cowhide boots and the skirt that reached to the middle of the calf. She squatted down in Max's sight, and her seemingly slender arms easily Helping Max to the wheelchair, her voice was the same, still in half-baked English: "This is prepared by Caius himself, do you need me to demonstrate how to use it?"

Max pulled his thoughts away from the pain, and firmly held Jaina's wrist. Although he didn't apply any force, the meaning contained in it was already obvious. She was begging Jaina to put Catherine's matter on hold and let her do it. deal with.Jaina's beautiful emerald eyes blinked lightly, and she took out her hand with a smile and handed over a manual, her soft voice without any false elements.

"You have limited mobility now, this machine can help you better adapt to life here. The instruction manual is in Italian, if you don't mind if I translate it into English for you, okay? We have to follow certain rules, don't we?" Jaina smiled and Max's eyes turned gray.

"You are right, but there are always loopholes in high-tech products like this, and I think we should proceed with caution." Max replied.

The two played charades back and forth, and Jaina decided to get rid of Catherine, and warned Max that he would not be troubled now.Max, on the other hand, believes that Jaina should proceed cautiously so as not to fall into the trap.

In short, neither of the two could persuade each other. In the end, Max squeezed the hem of Jaina's skirt when she left, tilted his head with a harmless smile on his face, and said, "Miss Jaina, please stay. I want to Just show me one more time, okay?"

Knowing that she was delaying time, Jaina had no way to refuse. Max is now Caius' guest and Aro's key observation object. No matter what the reason is, it can't be justified.

Jaina showed an impeccable smile, nodded and said yes, but the manual in her hand was snatched by a black shadow, and Caius threw the heavy book on the floor and lowered his head to study the thin manual .Jaina smiled even more: "I believe the leader is smarter than me, and will definitely let you use this machine skillfully."

Before Max could react, Jaina had already left and closed the door. She didn't agree that Caius would use modern technology better than Jaina!Even if she has no intention of procrastinating, she still wants to use the wheelchair well!

"You look very reluctant, are you questioning my level?" Caius' face was very calm, but the rough waves in his eyes were not as calm as his face, Max shook his head guiltyly, and subconsciously avoided Embarrassed to pick up the tome he dropped on the ground.

The best test of acting skills is to pretend to read a word even though she doesn’t understand a word. Fortunately, there are mostly illustrations in the book. While flipping through the book boredly, she pricked up her ears to listen to Caius’ movements. He seemed to be there too. Pretending to be good at reading instructions, she felt that she would die a miserable death for no reason.

The heavy weight of the book on her knee made her struggle, and the pain made her gasp secretly. After a while, a white hand took the book away. Caius' robe swept over her trousers, and the remote control was caught by him. Holding it upside down, Maxton looked at Caius with a face of death, and said, "Do your own thing, don't worry about it."

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Yes, if you can read the sentences in the manual fluently."

She bowed her head resignedly, put her hands on the armrest, and her eyes wandered around without focus.She seemed to hear the sound of his gnashing of teeth, and was about to raise her eyes when the chair under her body suddenly rotated, and she flung herself towards the bookshelf until the back of her hand touched the edge and was thrown towards the wall. Undecided in shock, she sat in the automatic wheelchair and rushed directly to the bookcase. Caius.

Caius subconsciously jumped to avoid it, Max let go of the armrest to cover his face, and slammed into the floor lamp.

The translucent hard lampshade hit her forehead, and the bracket was caught by Caius who rushed over to stop the second wave of attack. The fragments of the light bulb fell next to the eyes. Fortunately, covering her face only hurt her hand, and her heartbeat calmed down. , She sat up and picked out the glass shards, stared at Caius angrily, and said, "You want to play me to death, don't you!"

Caius, who was obviously choked, tried to save face: "It deserves it, human beings' fragile bodies will have wounds every now and then, no matter how advanced your machines are, they can't compare to the indestructible bodies of the vampires."

"Say one more thing, believe it or not, I'll burn you to death." Caius retracted the hand that was stretched out to check Max's wound. It took almost an instant for him to stand up and leave the library and lock it from the outside. Lock the door and lock Max.She didn't realize it until the door was locked, and stared blankly at the European-style wooden door, wanting to cry without tears.

I had no choice but to get up and study the instructions by myself. When I encountered a word I didn’t understand, I went to the bookshelf to find a dictionary, and I barely used it.The sky was completely dark, and Volturi's old lighting equipment shone brightly. She was like a young girl reading a novel under an oil lamp in the old days and copying a book.

The book records the first map of the city of Voltra from thousands of years ago to the present. It is purely hand-painted, and everything is comparable to a modern 3D map. If Caius was not worried that Caius would find out that she would have torn it off, you must know that she copied it. How clumsy the method is. Anyone who sees Max simplifying a beautiful hand-painted map into a line segment map with "the shortest straight line between two points" wants to punch him, right?

In fact, Max should tear off that page instead of copying it. After all, the former can still be forgiven, while the latter...

She hasn't had a drop of water since she got up in the morning, and now it's late at night, she is lying on the table with a pen in her hand, her head hangs lower and lower, the tiredness brought about by hunger collapses Max's consciousness like a tide (hunger faints ).

What woke her up was the smell of breakfast coffee. The warm steam restored her strength to her fingers, and she struggled to open her eyes. It was still the library, so the smell just now was just an imagination. She continued to close her eyes again. The cold touch on her upper body forced her to raise her face——

The whole table, no, it was all her sight, which was overwhelmed by the breakfast meal in front of her.

Caius was very satisfied to see Max's flattered expression, he raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and handed her a roll of sheepskin map.The light yellow parchment was rolled up by a red ribbon, she took it and opened it, her face stiffened immediately.

"I have to say that your painting ability is really unsightly. I can't even imagine how you have lived to this age."

Max curled his lips and thanked dryly: "For the sake of breakfast, thank you. As for my painting ability, it's just that our appreciation ability is not in the same dimension. These are irrelevant."

I can use my nose to know Caius' look of disdain and contempt when he saw the map she drew, but so what, she is a pragmatist, not a flashy supporter.

However, the way this person apologized was really... elusive.
